The proper way to apply Silkspun to a sheeted surface is lower the temperature of your iron to 275° (usually we recommend 350°). This is hot enough to liquify Coverite's ad­ hesive, but not hot enough to activate its shrinking action. Now you will be able to adhere Coverite to the balsa without air bubbles, and it will stick like the skin on a ballpark hot dog. Another tip for sheeted surfaces is always work from the center out to the edges. Don't start by tacking down the edges, as this will trap air. Finally, always allow the fabric to cool before going on to the next area. The best way to do this is rub a cold wet rag onto the just heated surface.

  • 2007 Chapter Officers
    OUR ROOTS: AEROBATICS IN THE ‘60’s With the onset of cold weather and the lack of chapter news, I will take liberties with this installment to share some of our heritage. I first participated in formal aerobatic competition in 1968. At that time US competition was sanctioned by the ACA (Aerobatic Club of America) and was divided into three competition categories: Primary, Advanced and Unlimited. After three wins, Primary contestants were required to move up. In 1968 I was married with two boys and earning a whopping $820 a month as a chemistry instructor. I competed that year in Primary with a stock 65 hp J3 Cub. The ’68 Primary sequence was well designed and accommodated good energy management: Spin Loop Immelman 45 down snap Half Cuban Barrel Roll Hammerhead Slow Roll Reverse Half Cuban Four Point Roll Those of us without inverted fuel often experienced loss of power during the Immelman and appreciated the subsequent 45 down line in order to restart our engines. Contests in ’68 were held at Monroe, LA; Vandalia, IL; Ottumwa, IA; Rockford (Harvard) IL and the Nationals at Oak Grove airport, Fort Worth, TX. One of the pleasures of this era was the wide variety of competing aircraft. They included a lively mix of both monoplanes (clipped Cub and T-Craft, Luscombe, Ryan PT-22 and STA, Citabria, Stitts Playboy, Cassutt Racer, Chipmunk, Dart, and Zlin) and biplanes (Smith Miniplane, EAA Biplane, Pitts Special, PJ-260, Stampe, Bucker Jungmeister and Jungmann, Great Lakes, Wacos, and Stearman). Many of these early airplanes were modified to enhance their strength, control systems and to implement inverted power.

  • Het Grote LUCHTVAARTKENNIS Register
    Het grote LUCHTVAARTKENNIS register Het register van het Luchtvaart Historisch Tijdschrift ‘LUCHTVAARTKENNIS’ en de daaraan voorafgaande ‘Mededelingen’ van de Afdeling Luchtvaartkennis van de KNVvL geeft een overzicht van hetgeen in de afgelopen jaren is gepubliceerd, m.u.v. de eerste jaargang, die helaas niet meer te traceren blijkt. Uiteraard is v.w.b. De eerste jaargangen selectief opgetreden, aangezien daarin veel summiere feiten (vliegtuiggegevens etc.) staan, die zo niet achterhaald, dan toch eenvoudiger elders te vinden zijn. Ook de diverse publicaties van het vooroorlogse Nederlandse burgerlucht- vaartregister zijn weggelaten, omdat deze na het verschijnen van het boek ‘75 jaar Nederlandse burgerluchtvaartregisters’ als overbodig kunnen worden beschouwd. Aangezien eerst in 1987 een volledige paginanummering voor het gehele jaar werd ingevoerd, wordt tot dat jaar de vindplaats aangeduid met jaartal en nummer van de betreffende aflevering van de ‘Mededelingen’. Vanaf 1987 geschied zulks per pagina. De in de Luchtvaartencyclopedie verschenen onderwerpen worden aangeduid conform de aflevering waarin deze verschenen. In een enkel geval uit 1985/86 bleek dit niet te achterhalen. Wanneer in een artikel de gehele productie van een bepaalde fabriek wordt weergegeven, wordt volstaan met de vermelding van de fabriek en worden niet de afzonderlijke types vermeld.
